This is what happens when the majority of journalists both have a profit motive and cozy up to the establishment: they'll say anything and a low/no-information populace gobbles it up without a grain of salt. The Intercept, Democra

These will only be toys, and here's why: fuel efficiency (or lack thereof) per passenger. Good luck getting over 2 MPG considering having to haul around bits to meet both road and aircraft regs, fuel and passenger. Plus, do we really w

Joking? People can't fly an f-16 or most rockets, but computers can. People get drunk and plow into traffic in the other direction, run over a crowd of people because they're nuts. That's the truth, get used to it.

Intelligence agencies proportedly of democracies should invest more in cultural (and philosophical) self-reflection. That might mean "wasting" comparatively tiny sums on art, architecture, history, archival, philosophy and other n

At first, I was thinking of a helium-filled building run by Lando Calrissian but this makes a bit more sense. The handwriting is on the wall that Amazon needs thousands more smaller warehouses distributed throughout population centers in or

I stab them with my keys to let the air out and recycle at the store with other plastic material, since the local waste company doesn't recycle bags or film at all. It seems a shame considering how much plastic ends up in landfills, wa
